Lyrics for Album: Live In America [2007]
  
               
  7408>Göring's on the phone from Freiburg
  Said Willie done quite a job
  Hitler's on the phone from Berlin
  Says I'm gonna make you a star
 
 
  My Captain Von Ondine is your next patrol
  A flight of English bombers across the canal
  After twelve they'll all be here
  I think you know the job
 
 
  They hung there dependent from the sky
  Like some heavy metal fruit
  These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Must they live that I might die
 
 
  In a G-load disaster from the rate of climb
  Sometimes I'd faint and be lost to our side
  But there's no reward for failure—but death
  So watch me in mirrors keep me on the glidepath
 
 
  Get me through these radars, no, I cannot fail
  While my great silver slugs are eager to feed
  I can't fail—No, not now
  When twenty five bombers wait ripe
 
 
  They hung there dependent from the sky
  Like some heavy metal fruit
  These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Must they live that I might die
 
 
  ME 262 prince of turbojet
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Blasts from clustered R4/M quartets in my snout
  And see these English planes go burn
 
 
  Well, you be my witness, how red were the skies
  When the fortresses flew for the very last time
  It was dark over Westphalia
  In April of '45
 
 
  They hung there dependent from the sky
  Like some heavy metal fruit
  These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Must they live that I might die
 
 
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
  Must these Englishmen live that I might die
  Junkers Jumo 004
 
 
  Bombers at twelve o'clock high,
